Well i’m guessing like a few others i was looking for something to do while everything is closed. So i went to the folks house and dug out my orig rc10. Does have an A stamp chassis. Thought i’d clean it up and see if i could get it running. I replaced and A arm but thats it everything else is how i put it together first time. Hobby shop guy suggests shelf queen just to preserve it. I’m thinking the same. Got an orig Frog i may clean up for the same shelf. Sorry long winded intro. And i dont know how to rotate the photos so i guess turn your head. Haha. Thanks for the add!

Welcome
How does the bottom look, condition?
Nice fairly early car, mid 1985ish.
Condition should / could determine what to do with it.

Thanks guys.
@rc10resto Bottom is still pretty clean just a few scratches. Yeah that 85 timeline seems right dad may have bought it a little later. Found and orig receipt in the instruction manual from the team associated location in costa mesa for a sticker pack dated jan ‘88. Pretty cool.
@KidAgain Im in OC. And yeah now its got me looking at new rigs. Boy what a difference.

Nope. Up here in the northern part. Not to far from OCRC. Probably have to go in and check that place out. I remember as a kid there being an indoor track off that same street.

That car looks like it's in great shape. Those shocks look so clean!
